Ward and Marcelo are correct. Akinbiyi was no.8, Allison 14, Lester 11, Webber 25 and 10 and Windass 32. Kabba was variously 34, 15,19 and 11. Bryson never played for Scotland.

Two more to get.

Trying to think who was no 9 in the triple assault season.

[JJ Sefton]

Going back to yesterday ... Did Ian "Donkey" Bryson not get a couple of Scottish caps?

No, that was the tail end of the Scots having a half decent side. Still, bit harsh Bryson, I always liked him.

 

[Darren]

I hope you have evidence to back that up.

He's fine. To suggest someone is gay is no longer libellous...

[Guesty]

I think he scored one against Preston, the winner after we'd come from 2-0 down. His only goal for us, I think.

That's right. It was on 30th December 2000. Bobby Ford (pen) and David Kelly got the other 2 after Preston had gone 2-0 up early on, Mark Rankine getting one of their goals.
